Lois & Clark Forums Forums Fan Fiction Lois & Clark Fanfic FDK - Gawain and the Black Knight (30/38)

All right, now tell me...who expected that?

Next chapter's "How to Break a Bond."

Did not see that one coming! I totally believe that Alexandar would pull something to the effect of forcing Loisette to marry him due to his power hungry craze.

Great job describing the inner conflict of Clarkent kidnapping the Princess and how even though he had to do it, it was with gentleness and not much force. Typical Loisette reactions to the situation. Glad she tried to fight back and showed back bone.

Clarkent's willingness do anything to help the Princess be happy is totally in character. I wish he would hurry up and figure out he's the heir to the Barbarian kingdom so that he can finally "be at her level of nobility". But that is probably still a ways away. *sigh*

Did anyone notice how vague Peri was on how long the Princess and Clarkent were to be secreted away? How does this affect Alexandar and his reign of terror? I'm wondering if he will set out a search and maybe try to declare her dead if she is gone to long so he can claim ultimate power... Just a thought.

Glad your posting on the weekends! Hope you post tomorrow too

Wow! I didn't expect Clarkent to be the kidnapper!

But it could be days before Peri comes to see them. How is Clarkent supposed to not talk to Loisette?

I realized when I tore ope-- erm, carefully unwrapped this part, that I forgot to speculate about the title in last part's FDK. So, I'm guessing it's Loisette being kidnapped by Alexander since he realized she's not cooperating with his plans for her. Maybe he will even have a Black Knight look-alike do the dirty deed and then come to her rescue. Okay, now that that's out of the way, let's see how it will play out...

She's been kidnapped already

Fun! /remembers MLT's Nowhere to Run/

Long enough to explain the birds and the bees? Long enough to reestablish the old kingdom through the introduction of an heir to both thrones?

Okay, and now Loisette get's to wear a shirt with the 'I'm with stupid' print on it.

Good thing he's wearing the armor. But what will he say when he discovers her bruises?

Yes. Ransom. UH-huh. But how much damage do you get for a damaged princess?

Gobbled him up, I'd say.

*snickers* Did I mention I love feisty Lois?

It's probably for the best for now.

What's he expected to do the next couple of days? Stay with her as the Black Knight? Seriously? And did he take the book with him? And is it time for 31 already?

Michael

No, I was not expecting that. Poor Loisette, who is sure she is being taken for ransom, and poor Clarkent who has to make her think he's a bad guy, Especially since her low opinion of the Black Knight has been so painful for him.

So Peri's enchanted cottage ... does it have a spell to keep kidnapped Princesses in? Or just a perception filter to keep Alexander from discovering it? I hope it's both, or else Clarkent is going to have a difficult time restraining her. He has to sleep sometime, and having to tie her up will both break his heart and make it extremely difficult to convince her his motives are good.

But given that we are heading toward the end of the story, I'm going to hope that our hero will start catching a break. He's had little go right for him in his quest to convince Loisette/Gawain that the Black Knight is a hero, so I think it's time things start looking up for him.

Next chapter, please!

Kathy

Plain Jane-- Yeah, not much is beyond Alexander. And as for Loisette's struggle to get free, well, she's definitely not one to go meekly without a fight!

Yeah, I'm trying to post every day now. We'll see if that holds up!


lcfan99-- Glad I surprised you! Hehehe. And you're right--Clarkent isn't thinking very clearly with his resolve not to talk to her.


Michael-- Hahah. Yeah, I did kind of miss your speculation on the title of this part, so I'm glad you gave it to me now! And I guess it's not a Black Knight look-alike so much as...well, the real deal! It's fun when good people have to do bad things to do good things, heh.

Pwahaha. I think they've got way too much to talk about for anything like that to happen yet.

LOL. That really made me chuckle.

Well, I don't think he'll be looking underneath her sleeve at her elbow. :p

As for the book, well, he doesn't have that with him. He doesn't intend for this to be a pleasure trip.


Kathy-- Yeah, you definitely gotta feel for Clarkent in that it must really stink to have to take Loisette's opinion of the Black Knight down several notches.

In regards to Peri's cottage, it's just a concealment spell. So, no, it doesn't have a spell to keep kidnapped princess in it. After all, that was Clarkent's idea specifically.

Heh heh. I don't know if I'd say he is going to be catching a break yet. But we are indeed nearing the end, so something has to give at some point.
